CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, company size fit, deployment model, here is our conclusion:
SMB and mid-market teams drowning in unclassified documents will find immediate value in AppSec Prot-On's automatic labeling and file-level access controls, which actually enforce what your policy says instead of just storing it. The tool covers ID.AM and PR.DS functions in NIST CSF 2.0, meaning it handles both discovery of what you own and real-time protection of it across PDFs, Office files, and media. Skip this if your organization needs sophisticated identity federation or wants to integrate data classification with broader DLP orchestration; Prot-On is document-protection focused, not a platform play.
Mid-market and enterprise teams drowning in unstructured data sprawl will get real value from Exonar Reveal's ability to index and classify data across heterogeneous storage without requiring massive infrastructure spend. The on-premises deployment and published API mean you can integrate this into existing data governance workflows without rip-and-replace, and the fingerprinting duplication detection actually reduces storage costs as a byproduct of compliance work. Skip this if you need asset discovery tied to identity and access controls; Reveal maps what data exists and where it sits, but doesn't tell you who should have access to it, leaving the toughest part of data risk assessment to manual remediation.
